Awesome! My goal this year is to also do the century. Metric Century I completed a few years back for the first time but haven't gotten the true 100 done yet. This year!

Nice article too!

Excellent Gerry!

I will be doing my first century at the end of May, my second one in mid-June and the third one at the beginning of August!! That's right, I've singed up for 3!
